10:40 am
this urge to reproduce and reproduce. they do pigeons, les an average of 2 eggs, $6.00 to $8.00 times a year. common attempts to control in numbers include trapping poisoning or even shooting the birds. experts call it torture. also have inadequate m ways of keeping pitches out of certain areas and then they get entangled and caught and die the air that is all in suffering. we don't see luckily for the birds, there are berliners who've taken matters into their own hands. i thankfully many, many people in the city who take care of pitching them. they do get in a voluntary basis without that we couldn't, couldn't manage at all because there's nothing in place by the government yet. de
